At CoinDCX, I have led large platform initiatives powering 7–8M users, owned multi-year technical roadmaps, and built high-performing teams of 40+ engineers across Staff and IC levels. My focus on engineering excellence has driven ~40% reduction in production failures, stronger ownership, and faster delivery. Previously, at CARS24, I delivered $600K+ annual cost savings by replacing third-party systems with in-house platforms, and at Times Internet, I scaled systems handling billions of requests per day.
